The most important thing is to build confidence of the student in their learning, and making them believe that they can do it without giving them pressure or distinguishing one from another for their abilities. It is also important for the tutor to create a comfortable learning environment where they don’t feel embarrassed making mistakes but…

I believe that tutors must be good analyzers if they want to succeed. I mean that they have to examine the way students study and practice and even think. After a good observation, they can provide students with the tools with which students can improve their weaknesses. This can be different form one student to another one. Besides, Encouraging…

I think the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, provide clarity on challenging concepts, and, most importantly, inspire a genuine curiosity to learn more. A good tutor should create an environment where students feel supported, ask questions freely, and explore topics beyond the lesson because…

I believe explaining a concept in such a way that the student understands it intuitively and can thus use that understanding to solve different problems, rather than simply rote-learning a series of facts, is an incredibly important part of being an english tutor. The tutor should be adding to a student's toolkit such that they can solve a variety…

A tutor's primary aim is to instill confidence in the student. Students seek tutors for a variety of reasons. Maybe the student is struggling and needs someone to explain things more clearly. A wise and patient tutor will do that, and the student will feel more confident; that they can do it! Some students come to tutoring with no real problems,…

The first thing would be to establish a plan of goals and expectations and help the student identify their role in this plan. Once an english tutor has an idea of the expectation of the parents/school/ students then only can progress take shape, and this might have many forms and variations as to how this is executed as the student grows or…

I would say the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is helping them grow as individuals, and help them find a love for learning - a strong passion for the academic studies. A tutor needs to also serve as a good role model for the students, and be a person the student can trust to help them improve their grades. I would say…

For me, the two things that aided me most when I was being tutored in highschool were practice questions given to me by tutors and when these tutors took their time to really deconstruct these concepts until I fully understood them. My biggest strength is patience. Sometimes it takes students a long time to begin to understand certain concepts and…

I can make the student not only competent, but also comfortable and confident in a certain topic. I understand how stressful hard subjects can be. I want to take away the feeling of fear when students enter a class they think they're not good in. Another thing is teaching a student to be an autodidact. I was fortunate enough to know this tactic…

I think that as an english tutor, we should be different from teachers at school. We should provide extra care to their needs and catering to what areas of a particular topic they are struggling with, in order for them to improve. Therefore, I think that conducting a personalized teaching plan for the students to observe and explore what methods…

I think that this does vary student to student (haha sorry bit of an off question-answer!) But largely and for those that are shy it's being approachable and this means anything the student doesn't understand, the student should be eager to ask you if you are approachable. And for those who aren't so shy and often at a higher level too, my answer…

Local Reviews

Everything is going really well with the tutoring
Anthea, Mount Pleasant

Inside Mount PleasantTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Jack worked on measuring area, length, and perimeter as well as identifying geometric shapes and angles using hands-on examples.

Year 9 Ava explored linear equations and began investigating the properties of parabolas, including graphing curves.

For Year 11 Sam, lessons covered solving simultaneous equations by elimination and applying index laws to simplify algebraic expressions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, missing homework and forgotten classwork meant almost none of the previous lesson's work was retained—"made further teaching difficult," a tutor noted.

A Year 10 student preparing for an algebra test relied on notes instead of memorizing key formulas, slowing progress in rearranging equations.

In Year 11 Chemistry, not writing out working or using back-checking led to repeated errors when practicing stoichiometry and redox reactions.

Another senior maths student avoided showing steps during surds problems; this habit hid mistakes and cost marks on tests.

Confidence dropped after setbacks, especially when feedback wasn't used immediately.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mount Pleasant noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student who used to avoid asking questions; now, she's regularly checking her understanding during lessons and even clarified oxidation numbers without prompting.

In Year 11 maths, another student finally cracked simultaneous equations after weeks of struggle—he worked through several practice problems on his own and spotted his earlier mistakes straight away.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who'd previously hesitated with fractions is now comparing them confidently and finished all her assigned worded questions independently this week.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Canning Bridge Express Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Pleasant Primary School.
